Finish your season on a warm note!

Register for the Lone Star Cyclocross Festival before December 1 for a chance to win a free stay for the weekend! Come to Austin, Texas for MLK Weekend, January 16-17 for the last, best race of the season.

We have incredible deals from our host hotels, the Courtyard by Marriot Airport and Downtown, making this an affordable race vacation for your family or team.

Saturday features age-based categories and collegiate races presented by Mellow Johnny’s Bike Shop, with skill categories and single speed on Sunday. Spend Monday’s holiday seeing the sights, riding Austin’s legendary roads and trails, or recovering from the legendary night life of the Live Music Capital of the World.

The Lone Star Cyclocross Festival is the Texas State Championships, the final race in the TXBRA Premier Cup, and the SCCC Collegiate Conference Championship, so expect great competition. We have a beautiful venue, featuring an enclosed lakeside pavilion with a pier from which you can see all the action. The course is a fun mix of fast paved and grass sections with a series of off-camber turns, a double sandpit, a short run up, and a thrilling 90 degree turn at the water’s edge.

Sign up now for a great weekend in Austin, and come enjoy our great weather, hospitality and racing.
